You know me and challenges! I love them!

I started an Instagram challenge yesterday, it’s not so much a challenge…I guess…it’s more of a platform of knowledge and I encourage feedback. Let’s get talking people! What you do not know could hurt you. Ask questions! When I first started on this clean eating/Vegan journey it was overwhelming (and still is) it is so difficult to read ingredients on the foods we buy and actually understand what we are purchasing. So I always found it easier to take it one chemical (ie additives, poison, toxins, etc.) at a time…

So, each day for the next 30 days or so I will do a daily post on Instagram(and probably here too) of the definition and side effects of the chemicals that are put in our food. One chemical each day.

It’s important that we understand what is in our foods, we really are what we eat and why wouldn’t you want to know what you are ingesting. This may get a little disheartening, but just know that there are options and you have a choice to eat clean and grad hold of your health.
